Mobile News Wrap-Up: October 31, 2012

Happy Halloween. If you’re in search of some spooky games, give Organ Trail: Director’s Cut serious consideration. Not only is this survival horror romp on sale for a very reasonable $0.99, but there’s also an exclusive Halloween episode that’s available from October 17 through November 7. In it, you’ll enjoy 12 new events, pumpkins, candy, and a boss fight with Frankenstein. Absolutely worth it. [Download: iOS/Android]

Sticking with the undead, Zombie Gunship is free for a limited time. One of the biggest gems of the App Store, this intense and extremely polished title puts you in the cockpit of an AC-130, charged with blasting zombies while preventing survivors from succumbing to the shambling hordes. We’ve always considered this game a bargain at $0.99, but for zero dollars, it’s a steal. [Download]

In other news, you’ll finally be able to get your hands on Peter Molyneux’s iOS and Android experiment, Curiosity, on November 7. If you recall, this title was supposed to drop this past summer, but succumbed to an unexpected delay. The game presents players with a black cube comprised of billions of smaller cubes, with the goal of chipping away to find out what lies within. Unfortunately, only one person will find out, and it’s up to that player to decide whether or not he or she will share this discovery with the rest of the world.

Get ready for Star Fox on the App Store, sort of. Tomorrow marks the official release of Psyonix’s outer space shooter, Arc Squadron, which appears to take a page from Nintendo’s beloved Fox McCloud-driven series. Featuring some of the best visuals we’ve seen on iOS, the app sends you through a variety of missions to destroy the evil Guardians with six unique ships and 10 devastating weapons. We’ll keep a close eye on this one.

It would appear 2K Games struck out with its newest iOS effort, Borderlands Legends. Inspired by the popular console and PC franchise, this mobile and tablet spin-off has received poor reviews. Website Toucharcade says “it should be awesome, but in practice nothing works like it should,” while Pocketgamer remarked that “if this is your first experience of the series, you’re unlikely to want to explore its primary-colored wastelands any further.” [Download: iPhone/iPad]
